अ॒हं स यो नव॑वास्त्वं बृ॒हद्र॑थं॒ सं वृ॒त्रेव॒ दासं॑ वृत्र॒हारु॑जम् । यद्व॒र्धय॑न्तं प्र॒थय॑न्तमानु॒षग्दू॒रे पा॒रे रज॑सो रोच॒नाक॑रम्
ahaṃ sa yo navavāstvaṃ bṛhadrathaṃ saṃ vṛtreva dāsaṃ vṛtrahārujam yadvardhayantaṃ prathayantamānuṣagdūre pāre rajaso rocanākaram
I am he who made you new, who made broad chariots, who like Vrtra became a slave, who seized the mountain. Those who increased you and first brought men afar, shining with dust, made the boundary bright.
I, the slayer of Vṛtra, am he who crushed Navavāstva and Bṛhadratha, (who crushed) Dāsa like aVṛtra, when I drove to the distant shore of the shining world, (both) my augmenting and outstretched (foes) oneafter the other.
1, I crushed Navavastva of the lofty car, the Dasa, as the Vrtra-slayer kills the fiends; When straightway on the region's farthest edge I brought the God who makes the lights to broaden and increase.
